Re: APC 40 - Way to cancel?

Lets say your in the middle of a one-minute-clip.. If you then accidently trigger a new clip or a dummy clip or an empty clip or whatever, there is no way to cancel the action and continue the one-minute-clip where you left off/screwed up.. You need to start the clip from the beginning.. Right? If ...

Re: Automating Solo Button

I remember seeing this coming up in an article I read years ago (~Live 3 maybe). Which said that automating solos was actually quite difficult to do in the Live engine. My guess is that internally the solo does the mute every other track trick, and while that's fine if it's a user pressing a button,...

Re: Gameshow Buzzer Live Set - Help me figure out how to...

Can you set each midi input to a different channel (or interface) and a different note? Assuming you can, for each of the contestants (N) have a midi track coming in. Set the interface and channel of each track so that only one controller's note comes into it. Set the output of the track to a loopba...

Re: 249 Euros to make my apc into a stepsequencer?

Do i have to spent 249 Euros for M4L to turn my APC into a stepsequencer? Is there any other possibilty? It's not that i think M4L is too expensive. Probably it's a great thing for a lot of people but for my needs just too much! It's pretty simple to do out of the box, if you set up the right midi ...

Re: Max for Live - first impressions?

I'd bet the lack of a runtime is more to do with lack of development time (particularly the testing which everyone always forgets about) than with greed.

Re: Playing Time-Synced Samples In Drum Rack

If you set the sample length in simpler to the minimum, switch on loop and automate the sample start time to go from 0 to 100% over say a bar (assuming your sample is one bar long) then you'll get a kind of granular timestretch. In a drumrack you'll probably want to assign Sample Start for each of y...

Re: how can a midi track output data to multiple midi channels

Bit of a hack, but if you midi map controls on an effects rack to the correct CC and channel then the values and channel are echoed out to the midi outputs set to Remote On.

Re: "cohesive" sound....or how to not sound amatuer

One little trick I've been using a lot (which I read in an interview with Robert Henke) is to split the signal into middle and side channel, ie group two Utility effects in parallel and set their width to 200% and 0%, and drop one of the distortion effects on the side channel. This can add a lot of ...
